Anybody who dies repeating something idiotic they saw on social media really isn’t much of a loss
I feel like this requires an age qualifier
Yeah, I worked in pediatric emergency medicine for a while and it’s really not the fault of literal children that they get hurt by these kinds of things.
The problem is some TikTok trends result in people causing others to die.
Example: Kia boyz car thieving joy riders have caused crashes that resulted in fatalities of people who were minding their own damn business.
I heard horse dewormers are good shit, you should try it some time!
Chase that ivermectin down with a nice bleach martini
I plan on working in emergency medicine after med school, and I feel like I’m going to have to get a dummy/burner phone to put TikTok (or its future equivalent) on to keep up with what trends and memes will be coming through the ER.
I know TikTok is a punching bag, but this is quite literally every social media platform. People have died from YouTube trends, Facebook trends, Reddit trends, Twitter trends, Instagram trends, etc.
If Lemmy pops off, I am sure people will be posting stupid Lemmy trends, too. It’s just an internet issue.
